nothing is meant to last forever.

Such a beautiful set, but heartbreaking to see the remains of other humans treated in such a way. Have we no respect for the person who was someone's family? Glad to see you didn't add to the highly disrespectful destruction for the final resting place of so many loved ones.

@flushed I'd heard that too about skeletons from India . . .

Kinda with autoguy on this . . . told my kids should I kick off to dispose of me as cheaply as possible, and use any extra cash on a big screen TV or someting. Ashes to ashes . . .

Never will understand random acts of vandalism. Especially of something so beautiful. Senseless.

This is most disturbing. It is someone's loved one, this is a state run facility? Awful, this person probably paid for the burial and taxes and this is the thanks? Just awful. I see the interest, but this is truly disgraceful.

be crazy how after the rapture happens there bones will be lifted from this awful place perhaps a skeleton will reform before it departs

I have no idea what state this is in but this needs to be reported to the state cemetary association, we own a mausoleum and cemetary and there are laws that protect graves and clean up messes just like this, it makes me very sad to think people have no more respect for the dead than this.

Great, my favourite subject! Graveyards and crypts!

Looks like the ghouls missed 18 crypts in this shot. Of all your galleries, this one has the top creep factor. As far as criticism? Why would there be any? You took only pictures and left only footprints. You merely explored and displayed your findings in a neutral manner. Nobody is fooling anyone there. The cemetery owners let it go to save money, they knew graves were being robbed, they sealed it to avoid bad PR, etc.. The only dead folks they care about are the ones on money.

All those bones were sealed in the crypts until some ghouls dragged them all out to search for valuables, grab the skulls and gold teeth, etc.. Somebody may still come back for the few that are still sealed, no telling.

And there you have it. Some ghoulish creepo lost his chopper-popper no doubt. What some folks will do for a buck, huh?

My thoughts also. I think some folks will pay good money for skulls too. There's a market for 'em.

There's '42 then. What was the latest date seen?

It seems like the only dead people that get any respect here in the states are the guys on our money.
